(5,209 posts)The sharp edges soften but I still miss him terribly. I just talked to him earlier today. Through it all Ive found that gratitude and good memories have helped the most. I feel very grateful to have had the time and memories we had. I hope you can find some peace. Again, give yourself some grace and take care of yourself. Do special things for yourself.

(6,997 posts)I lost my husband suddenly in 2016 and I don't know how I made it thru the first year. Grief is a bitch, and there's no right way to grieve.

I've lived alone for long periods and at some point realized that vocalizing, both talking and singing, really helped. I read somewhere that birds must do a certain amount of singing in order to maintain their heart health; I've wondered if the same could be true for us.
So sorry for what you're going through!!!
